MISSING CELESTE HERNANDEZ
Celeste Rivas Hernandez
Celeste Rivas Hernandez was a 13-year-old girl from Lake Elsinore, California, who went missing on April 5, 2024. Described by family as bright and caring, she disappeared suddenly, leaving behind a devastated community. Her family shared that she had a small “Shhh…” tattoo on her right index finger, a detail that later proved key in identifying her.
For more than a year, Celeste’s loved ones searched for answers. In September 2025, her case drew national attention when her remains were discovered inside the front trunk of a Tesla that had been impounded in the Hollywood Hills. She was only 15 years old at the time of identification.
Her death is being investigated by the Los Angeles Police Department as a homicide. The case has raised urgent questions about how she vanished, how she came into contact with those linked to the vehicle, and what circumstances led to her tragic fate.

- Celeste Rivas Hernandez is confirmed deceased.

- LAPD’s Robbery-Homicide Division is “thoroughly examining every aspect” of the case to “uncover the truth and seek justice.”

David Anthony Burke (d4vd) – Biography Timeline
d4vd’s Residence, Tour stops, confirmed dates, locations, and the cancelled show, all from publicly available sources:
Early Life
- Born: March 28, 2005, in Queens, New York.
- Raised: Moved with his family to Houston, Texas, around age 13.
- Education: Home-schooled after the 7th grade.
- Musical Exposure: Initially listened almost exclusively to gospel music until about age 13. He grew up singing in his church choir, where he also learned to play piano. His earliest musical exposure came primarily through gospel music.
- Gaming: Outside of church, he was like many teenage boys — an avid gamer. In his early teens, he developed a passion for Fortnite and began creating and uploading gameplay montages to YouTube. To enhance these videos, Burke used popular songs as soundtracks. When repeated copyright strikes threatened his channel, his mother suggested that he try making original music to avoid the strikes. Following her advice, he began experimenting with production apps and recording at home, which quickly evolved into songwriting and the development of his own musical style.
2021
- d4vd began using his sister’s walk-in closet to experiment with the only recording equipment he had at the time: his iPhone, earbuds and online music-making software BandLab. His inspiration came from video-game storylines and alt-rock bands he discovered through other YouTube montages like The Neighborhood, Arctic Monkeys and Wallows. He created his first song, the ethereal, piano-led “Run Away,” and several tracks followed, including “You and I,” “Here With Me” and, of course, “Romantic Homicide.”

- Reality: False. The song was released on July 20, 2022, not on Celeste’s birthday. Source
Rumor 3: Claim: D4vd was photographed with the missing teen, Celeste Rivas Hernandez.
- Reality: False. Friends and photos confirm his social group includes Celeste Herrera (@_celesteherrera), an adult. She appears in multiple tagged posts with him throughout 2024–2025.

- Celeste Rivas Hernandez is confirmed deceased.
- Her body was discovered in the front trunk (frunk) of a Tesla registered to David Burke (singer d4vd).
- The Tesla had been parked for several weeks before being towed, leading detectives to believe Celeste may have been deceased for weeks prior to discovery.

- LAPD’s Robbery-Homicide Division is “thoroughly examining every aspect” of the case to “uncover the truth and seek justice.”

- The cause and manner of death are still pending, and until those results come back, investigators have not determined if the death will be prosecuted as a homicide.
- LAPD: the Tesla was impounded and towed to the yard – an “official police garage” – by the city Department of Transportation because it was “parked on a public street for more than 72 hours.” The car is believed to have been parked in the Hollywood Hills. Investigators said the Tesla had been parked at the location for nearly a month.
- The Riverside County Sheriff’s Department said in a statement it confirmed with “the Los Angeles Police Department that Celeste Rivas Hernandez has been identified as the juvenile who was reported missing from Lake Elsinore.

Celeste Rivas: Tesla analysis
Tesla Vehicle Condition Analysis: Stationary Timeline Estimate
Possible Tesla Parking Timeline
📍 Vehicle Overview
- Make/Model: Tesla Model X
- Location: Hollywood Hills, Los Angeles, CA
- Inspection Date: September 3, 2025
- Images Timestamped: 14:54–14:55 PST
Physical Condition Observations
- Heavy Dust Accumulation
- The entire vehicle exterior — including windows, mirrors, hood, roof, and wheels — shows a thick, uniform layer of dust.
- This degree of buildup typically requires at least 4 weeks of inactivity under dry California summer conditions.
- The uniform coverage (with no streaking or disturbed sections) indicates the vehicle has not been washed, moved, or accessed in an extended period.
Ground & Tire Evidence
- There are no visible tire tracks, drag marks, or fresh rubber residue beneath or around the wheels.
- The dust and debris near the curb are undisturbed, further suggesting no recent vehicle movement.
Exterior Damage & Wear Indicators
- The rear bumper shows older impact damage without any signs of recent repair attempts.
- The wheel well liner is detached, yet still coated in dust — implying the damage predates the vehicle’s last movement.
Weather Conditions: July–August 2025
Meteorological data for the Los Angeles area shows no measurable rainfall during July and August 2025.
- July: Only a trace of rain recorded — effectively 0.00” total.
- August: 0.00” total rainfall across the entire month.
The prolonged dry period means dust accumulation was not disrupted by weather, reinforcing the likelihood that the vehicle remained stationary throughout this time.
Estimated Duration Parked.

D4VD Car: Tesla
The Tesla in this image is a Model X. You can tell by several distinctive features:
Falcon-wing rear doors: The seam lines and roof structure indicate the presence of Tesla’s signature upward-opening doors, unique to the Model X.
Large, upright rear glass: The rear window is taller and more vertical than on a Model Y or 3.
Wider, bulkier stance: The proportions are larger overall, consistent with the full-size SUV body of the Model X.
Taillight shape and hatch design: The rear hatch is taller and broader than the Model Y’s more sloped liftgate.
